Bleachbit: Bleachbit cleans only the default profile in Firefox

Created on 11 Jul 2018 · 6Comments · Source: bleachbit/bleachbit

I'm running the latest Firefox on Linux and have 2 profiles listed in profiles.ini. Only the first one is cleaned by Bleachbit (on my machine, at least).

I saw an old report here and was wondering if the bug has been fixed at some point?

Short answer, no, this feature is not ready.

Longer answer is a few months ago I made a significant improvement that will serve as a foundation for this feature.

@bryce-lynch

Are both your profiles in the directory ~/.mozilla/firefox/?

@az0 yes.

There was a fix for this, so would you please try the latest version from Git? It's rather easy to run from Git or source without installation

Just cloned the latest version, it successfully detected and cleaned both profiles and seems to work fine. Thank you! (You can close the issue if you don't have any questions.)

FYI

The fix was published in BleachBit 2.1 beta.
Soon the fix will be published also in BleachBit 2.2 final.
